I'm not 100% sure what indie pop refers to, feel like people could have pretty divergent ideas on that, but I do like me a catchy tune, so...
Off the top of my head in recent years:
The Drums are two albums in and could easily put together a 'best of' that would hold it's own against most bands'.
If He Likes It... is my favourite song of theirs at present, but that honour rotates pretty steadily.
Metronomy are great as well, the first three tracks off The English Riviera in particular. They're a bit quirkier, especially their first few releases, but heaps of catchy stuff.
Two Door Cinema Club's first album has a bunch of winning tracks. I only listened to their follow up once or twice, it didn't stick for me.
Kings of Convenience's Riot on an Empty Street has
Misread,
I'd Rather Dance With You...,
Love is no Big Truth and
Know-How. They're also fantastic live fwiw. That took me by surprise a little.
Go back a bit further and the
Magic Numbers were pretty special.
They're all pretty well known I suppose, but I keep going back to them.
